Memgraph 1.3 introduces a major update with its new replication feature, allowing users, particularly those on Memgraph Enterprise, to sync their databases across multiple servers for improved data availability and fault tolerance through a leader-follower model. This release also includes enhancements such as a locking mechanism for data directories, enabling live backups without interrupting operations, and improved logging capabilities for greater user control. Additionally, the update addresses query type deduction to prevent write queries on replicas, ensuring system integrity. Users are encouraged to explore these new features through available guides and to provide feedback on any issues encountered.
